Justin the plumber

Our bathtub drain hasn’t been working well over the last few weeks and this morning, in fact, the water wouldn’t drain at all. We had tried a bunch of stuff: hot water, drain cleaners, vinegar and baking soda… but nothing worked. After this morning’s non-drainage, Mom asked me to go on the Internet to see if there were any tips. Thank Google for finding it. I found a couple of articles from the Home Depot and other assorted do-it-yourself sites that showed that the best solution would probably be to use a plunger.

After Mom requested that I not use the toilet plunger, I went down to the local True Value and got a pretty basic one for $3.15. After a few plunges, the thing drained as well as it did when we first got it. Have I mentioned lately how much I love the Internet?
